Hello, P.T. Aufrette, and thank you for your contributions!
An article you worked on New Zealand 5 cent coin, appears to be directly copied from http://uk.ask.com/wiki/New_Zealand_20_cent_coin. Please take a minute to make sure that the text is freely licensed and properly attributed as a reference, otherwise the article may be deleted.

The article Jacques Rose has been proposed for deletion because, under Wikipedia policy, all newly created biographies of living persons must have at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.
If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the ((prod blp)) tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. -- MST☆R (Chat Me!) 11:33, 24 January 2012 (UTC)
WP:POLITICIAN is quite specific that in most circumstances a politician has to actually hold an elected office to be notable enough for an article on here; with rare exceptions such as John Turmel, who's notable because he is actually listed in the Guinness Book of World Records as the world record holder for the most elections run in and lost by any single person in world history, a person is not notable just for running for office, even repeatedly. And the article does not make any credible case that Millette is notable enough to be one of those exceptions — if you can add further evidence indicating that he's more notable than the existing article would suggest, then feel free to do so, but as written, the article does not demonstrate that he's notable enough for an independent article.
And at any rate, redirects can be instituted at any time, and it is not necessary to go to AFD for permission. Bearcat (talk) 04:06, 3 February 2012 (UTC)
Hi. When you recently edited Marcel Lussier, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Saint-Damase, Quebec (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

Hi! You have changed date of death to 18 december. On en.wikipedia there are two references ([1] and [2], each giving other date (13/12/1890 and 18/12/1890). Do you know which one is correct? (please answer on pl.wiki: here) --Winiar (talk) 20:10, 12 February 2012 (UTC)
I always thought the big bold letters at the top of the infobox should match the article title (Thomas Mulcair instead of Thomas J. Mulcair). If his birthname was simply Thomas Mulcair, and he was known as Thomas Mulcair, I agree the infobox shouldn't bother with the birth name section. The J makes the difference to me. I do not know, however, what the official policy is on this, or guideline. All Hallow's Wraith (talk) 07:08, 17 February 2012 (UTC)

Hello. I noticed that you've suppressed easily verifiable information regarding candidates for the upcoming Quebec general election. Why are you doing this? Any of this information can be found on the applicable parties' websites. The only point here is to have it on Wikipedia so that people can more easily access it all at once. With all the corruption and scandal going on in the current Quebec government, do you really want to put your reputation on the line by suppressing verifiable information? Please leave it alone.

Could I ask you to hold off on editing List of census divisions of Canada by population for a few minutes? The list had to be resorted to the 2011 rankings instead of the 2006 ones, but that's taken me about an hour and a half to do, and because you've made several edits to the article since I started doing it I either have to scratch all my work and start over again, or blow all of your edits out of the water and then go back and reapply them manually — so it would really help if you could wait for a bit before making further changes.

((cite encyclopedia)) will not work as expected for |author=Fred
if last is set to an empty string |last=
((cite encyclopedia|last=|author=Fred|title=Smith))
But when |last=
is removed |author=Fred
behaves as expected.
((cite encyclopedia|author=Fred|title=Smith))
By using the construction I have put in place, one does not need to know what the underlying code is for ((cite encyclopedia)) or worry in the future if the logic around some of the parameters is changed. -- PBS (talk) 21:05, 7 March 2012 (UTC)

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Abacus Data requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person, organization (band, club, company, etc.) or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.
If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Mrmatiko (talk) 13:35, 8 March 2012 (UTC)
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Abacus Data is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on good quality evidence, and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion template from the top of the article. DGG ( talk ) 15:54, 8 March 2012 (UTC)
Bonjour. I just wanted to point out to you that the "neighbourhood/communities" section of WP:CANSTYLE states in part:
Where a neighbourhood is recognized as a distinct and valid municipal address by Canada Post (see address lookup here), the title may be at [[Neighbourhood, Province]] rather than [[Neighbourhood, City]] (e.g. East York, Ontario; Dartmouth, Nova Scotia). Such neighbourhoods were usually once autonomous municipalities that have since been annexed or amalgamated, or are semi-autonomous municipalities (e.g. Montreal's boroughs).
That naming convention was the result of a fairly lengthy discussion/consensus. While my inclination is to agree with you (all neighbourhoods/communities should be at [[Neighbourhood, City]]), that is not the current convention (sadly). Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.

Hi, thanks for your work on Atkinson. Unfortunately the article had been riddled with vandalism the day before by a random IP. As it wasn't picked up, your valid corrections were mixed up with bogus nonsense. I reverted the vandalism, but as I don't know the subject's life and work I can't properly re-add your work. I suspect that your impulse to edit the page came from seeing the vandalism in the first place. You could, perhaps, copy and paste your text back in with not so much difficulty as you know what's what. Thanks and best wishes Span (talk) 15:38, 29 March 2012 (UTC)
Why are you changing standard degree/minutes format for coordinates (that match CTQ) to decimal degrees? Also, the use of the word "constitution/constituted" in the "established" line of the infobox has little meaning for average readers. It usually represents the date of incorporation, so it would be better to use that word. -- P 1 9 9 • TALK 12:06, 2 April 2012 (UTC)
coor_pinpoint
field to the address and the latd
and longd
to the corresponding nearly exact latitude and longitude. At least this will be a useful starting point for exploring the municipality via Google Street View or similar online tools, rather than an approximate latitude and longitude that might be in some field or lake. -- P.T. Aufrette (talk) 12:34, 2 April 2012 (UTC)
coor_pinpoint
specifies a street address, this is not too precise. The benefit of a street-address coor_pinpoint
is that the town hall usually represents the core of the municipality, and some readers will want to click on the coordinates and then proceed to follow links like Google Street View or aerial view and walk through the streets in whatever passes for a downtown in a given municipality. The benefit of being able to do so outweighs the inconvenience of seeing one or two extra digits in the coordinate display. Reading MOS:COORDS, I actually read that as a suggestion not to use more than four decimal digits, or fractions of a second of arc. If second-of-arc precision was never appropriate, there would not be lats
or longs
fields provided. Regarding documented coordinates, a street address represents documented coordinates in effect, because it is trivial (a matter of seconds) to verify the latitude and longitude corresponding to it (eg, in Google Maps, using "What's here", and Bing Maps probably has something similar); a few years ago, that would not have been the case.Hi P.T. Aufrette. First, I appreciate the work you are doing to try and make every infobox consistent (let's see if we can do that all Canada ;-)). I replied to your post on my talk page with bold text and ALLCAPS inside the infobox. As for the coordinates, I like to see less precision, pointing to the approximate centre of the territory. Anyway, we have to allow for more time on the WikiProject page, say, till the end of April? -- P 1 9 9 • TALK 01:10, 5 April 2012 (UTC)

Hi P.T. Aufrette, I recently started the above article.

May I ask why you made this a separate article? Elections Quebec considers it to be the same riding as Notre-Dame-de-Grâce, it has a similar name and kept the same MNA. Were there significant boundary changes? --Noname2 (talk) 15:57, 13 May 2012 (UTC)
The thing is, sometimes a riding can undergo a drastic boundary change but keep the same name. What do we do then? --Noname2 (talk) 00:30, 14 May 2012 (UTC)
In cases where the name changes but the boundary doesn't change even a bit, it should be the same article. No worries about original research there. --Noname2 (talk) 02:53, 14 May 2012 (UTC)
It's an imperfect solution, but I think it would be less imperfect if we didn't split articles for cases where we know the boundaries didn't change. René-Lévesque and Saguenay should be merged. --Noname2 (talk) 03:19, 14 May 2012 (UTC)
There's no need for two infoboxes. Just say on the page that riding name changed. Right now we mostly keep articles merged when there's a change in name but not boundaries. You're going to need consensus to change that, but I still think it's a bad idea. --Noname2 (talk) 16:03, 14 May 2012 (UTC)
